Florida

Most states increase their minimum wage on January 1 or July 1. However, Florida is gradually transitioning towards a $15 minimum wage by 2026, by $1 increments every September 30. This September 30, the minimum wage will become $11/hour, up from $10. This is the final state minimum wage change until December 31.
